Its customer base totals some 80,000 organizations, including educational and government institutions, media companies, IT services and a variety of other large enterprises. Its software - which lets people essentially create a low-latency mirror of one connected device's desktop on another machine (be it computer, phone or whatever) - has been downloaded 500 million times since it was founded in 2014, and on average it sees more than 900 million sessions each month "spanning" some 50 million miles.

General Atlantic is leading the round, with existing investors Insight Partners, EQT Ventures and Possible Ventures also participating. The Stuttgart-based company said that the Series C values it at over $600 million. Remote and hybrid working are the order of the day, and now a startup called AnyDesk that helps enable that to be pulled off smoothly - regardless of the architecture of a company's network, or where a person happens to be working - is announcing a round of $70 million to fuel its growth.
